Your POV

"Ok. Thanks Em. See you in a few. Bye." Ally hung up her phone. "Ok we're hooked up. Emily will be here in like 30 minutes to search your apartment." Ally said. I collapsed on the leather couch with relief from the situation. "Wanna take a nap? You got some time before Emily gets here and gets finished searching." Sarah asked me. I gratefully nodded my head. "Ill BRB i gotta make a phone call." Mark said and walked into a different room. They all gathered into the dining room to leave me to my nap. I lied on my back and closed my eyes. I pushed every bad thought from my head. But what was left? Home? No, dad is there. The thought that I might not get murdered by a superfan? Not really......... Mark? What will happen to us if Emme is done? Maybe better things will happen. Maybe my mom will divorce my dad finally. Maybe Mark and I will last......... I drifted off to sleep.

(*magical time skip to when you wake up*)

Someone was gently shaking me awake. I groggily opened my eyes to Mark sitting on the couch in front of where I was sleeping. "C'mon (y/n)! Wake up." Mark said softly in my ear. I sat up and yawned. "Hi." I said. "Good morning sleepy head." He said to me. He ruffled my already messy hair. I smiled. "Emily is gonna be here in a few minutes." Mark told me. I stretched. "Emily?-yawn-" I asked. Then I remembered our situation.

"Where is everybody?" I said and looked around the empty room. "Oh, their just in the kitchen." Mark said. "Ok." I said. Then somebody knocked on the door. Mark got up, looked through the pesky hole and opened the door. "Hey, your clear. I couldn't find her anywhere." Emily said. "Heyo." Ryan said as everybody who was in the kitchen came out to greet her.(a/n hey remember in the last chapter how I said that there might be a time where there is so many people in here I can't keep track? Well I think I've hit that point. but don't worry. Even more people will join us in our journey to defeat Emme😀) "she says were all good. Maybe she left the building?" Mark told all 8 of us. Everybody sighed happily. "Wait did you close and lock all the windows and doors at our place like we asked?" Matt asked. "Yeah I did. I searched everywhere in there, I'm pretty sure she left. Do you wanna go somewhere? This place seems pretty cramped. Maybe we could go somewhere quiet, and with a lot of space. You guys look like you're itching to have personal space. This place is too tiny for 8, 9 people. No offense to your apartment, Sarah." Emily said. That does sound pretty good right now, wide space. "Come on, I know a place. Maybe I'll sneak you guys a pizza or 2 from my job." Emily said and started walking away. We all filtered out the door after her.

(Magical time skip to when you all get to the place Emily was talking about)

Emily took us to this gorgeous little pond in the woods. She called it the water hole. There was a tree that has fallen over and into the pond. "WOW! THIS PLACE IS SO COOOOL! Its so PRETTY! XD" Mark yelled. Mark stated climbing on the tree that was just above the water. I decided to follow him. I mentally laughed an evil laugh. I walked over behind him while he was walking on the log thing over the water and I pushed him in the water. He fell but he pulled me in too. I didn't expect it and I fell in with him. We splashed each other playfully. I dunked under the water and he threw me like, two feet into the air. "Aahhh!" I screamed as I was flung into the air. I splashed down and started laughing like crazy. Everybody was laughing after that.

Emily showed us a little spot where she kept a cooler. It had two 8-packs of soda, 3 huge bags full of water balloons and a few sandwiches. We all grabbed a soda and then we had a water balloon fight to the death. "HAAAYYAAAA!! TAKE THAT! AND THAT! IM GONNA GET'CHA!!" Mark shouted as he chased me around with a bunch of water balloons. "AHHH!!! EAT RUBBER AND POND WATER!" I shouted back to him and pelted a few water balloons in his direction. I fell on the ground, panting, after all that running. Mark came up to me. "Gotcha!" He said and dropped a balloon on my arm. "You alright? You wanna take a break?" Mark asked me and sat next to me. "Sure, ~pant~ I could use a soda~pant~ or two." I said. Mark and I went to the cooler and grabbed a soda and watched everybody throw water balloons at each other. It was pretty funny. Then I got that feeling again. That one familiar feeling, in my gut. That one feeling you get when something is about to happen.

I looked around, franticly. Is she hiding in the bushes? Did she follow us here? "Mark?" I whispered and looked at him. He wore the same look I had on my face. Realization. Danger. Fear. "Do you think...." Mark said. "Um, I, uh, maybe.... We.... Are.... just....... Paranoid.....?" I said, but I didn't believe myself. "Maybe...? I... I'm not sure." Mark said. I looked at everything very carefully. Looking for a sign of her. I looked at the others, who probably feel safe. I'm just paranoid.. Its not... She's not her. She's not here. "Uh, let's go back to water balloon fight. It might get our minds off this.... Subject." I said. "Yas. That sounds good." Mark said and we went back over to our friends and threw water balloons that we filled with the water from the pond at each other. In no time we forgot what we were recently thinking about. We were just focused on aiming and throwing water balloons and having fun. "WA!!" "OW! HAHAHAHA!!" "TAKE THAT!" "YOU'LL NEVER TAKE ME ALIVE!" we all shouted as we threw the little bombs of water.

We were all having a good time. Somebody threw a green balloon and it hit Mark. My mind stopped in its tracks. I thought we only had orange balloons.... Who threw that? I looked around and saw somebody huddled in the bushes. My eyes widened as I saw- wait a second. That's a guy. I know that guy. I inched toward the bushes, not letting the little man know I was coming. Then I jumped on the short green haired Irishman's back and shouted, "SEAN WILLIAMS MCLOUGIN WHY DIDNT YOU TELL ME YOU WERE COMING?!!"
